Midnight Blue by L.J. Shen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
“Life is full of secrets, and narrow-minded people, and sugar-coated, empty conversations that hold no weight. What’s real is what’s inside us. What’s important is what we feel.” -Alex Winslow (the rock god of our hearts, body and soul)
Characters and Oneliner of Story (sort of):
Indie -our heroine for this story and hanny (you'll know what I am talking about once you read this) to our rock god Alex.
Alex-our rock god who has been lately been spiraling out of control and needs assistance (not that he's willing)...
Lucas-Drummer, friend, and enemy of Alex for a time (again, read the story).
Alfie- Is our comic relief for this special story...a very interesting relief...
Jenna -Alex's manager and amigo (though not so friendly).
Natasha, Craig and Ziggy - Indie's family and they're not in good shape tbh...
Fallon-our rock god's obsession for the remainder
Will Bushell -Public enemy Numero Uno (Broken Knight reference anyone?) cause of our dear Fallon...
One-liner: Alex needs to get to his feet and his staff are going to help him in every way possible and no matter what, to keep him afloat in time for his latest tour "Letters to the dead". But you all know, love is hard to avoid, so is harsh reality, glaringly bright.
My opinion: Well this book has managed to highlight the realities and breaking down what it means to be a rockstar, their lifestory and how they manage to avoid obstacles and still be able to perform, not cracking the mask, and what it also means to live on the poverty line. Also teaching about love, how to battle your own demons and know what is worth fighting for.
Brilliant writing is executed making everything written be felt as real as it could be to the reader reading, amazing development of characters, I mean Alex has definitely grown a lot through his mistakes and finally made peace with his past while Indie has learned to confront the reality but also to help while making her brother realize his mistakes which would have cost his family a lot. There's defiinitely a ton of love and some interesting notions regarding the topic and some very out of this world scenes heh, but not that important to the plot unless you pay more attention to the dialogues in the scene.
But it is a very well done rocker romance and I love everything from the plot to the characters to the main messages in this story shared.
Definitely read this one you guys, it's worth it, trust me on it.
Until the next book,
-J.B
